In this episode we have Mike Smith, a Recovery Devon board member and our tech wizard, talking about the positives of being 'out of our minds'.
Mike talks to us about how being out of our minds can help us engage more with the world around us and our own imagination. We hear Mikes thoughts on how the school, education and learning system may create concrete and inflexible minds as we neglect our imagination and focus more on facts and already established beliefs.
We also hear Mike question how we measure success, what is progress and why connection to others is so vital to our well being. All this and the bonus of a brilliantly explained musical metaphor. We hope you enjoy.
